#9 - HALLOWEEN HAVOC
Halloween Havoc was a pro wrestling pay-per-view event produced annually by World Championship Wrestling from 1989 through 2000. It was held at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit in 1994 and 1995 and I attended both shows.
1994 featured an undeniable main event of Hulk Hogan (with Jimmy Hart) defending his WCW World Heavyweight Championship inside a steel cage against Ric Flair (with Sensuous Sherri) with Mr. T as the Special Enforcer.
1995 included a Sabu match, which I totally marked out for because he came to the ring with The Sheik...
I was 17 when I went to that show. I'd be managing Sabu 7 years later.
The 1995 show also had one of the most ridiculously stupid things I've ever seen in wrestling, Hulk Hogan vs The Giant in a Sumo Monster Truck match on top of Cobo Hall. Even worse, The Giant got pushed off the roof!
